The catchiest way to enjoy the landscapes on Hârtibaciului Valley is by moto-draisine. Prietenii Mocăniței Association will have it ready for you and seven of your friends, by appointment only (call: +40740160049). The draisine is powered by two bicycles so your group of friends can take turns to pedal throughout the 7 km route between the villages of Cornățel and Hosman. Depending on your fitness, it takes between one and two hours to travel the route, or more if you chose to make a pit stop in Hosman.

P.S. You can help clean the route every Saturday until 5 September, when the Mocănița train will run again for a few days!
